What social programs are really up to
Okay, before you read this post, don't take a side before you read it. I had this revelation a few days ago.

There are two main types of people in the world. Those that are productive members of society and those which are not. There is no salary cap on these classifications. The interesting thing about these two groups comes to having children. Most of the families that are productive members of society have just a few kids and raise so that they will know the value of having a good education and being productive in a society. Unfortunatly most of the nonproductive members who live at home off of welfare have nothing better to do then make babies. So these baby making machines produce numerous kids starting at a very young age who will usually share a similar path as their parents, to live off welfare and immiate rabbits. The senario should be starting to become clear here. The productive members of society pay taxes, as do the nonproductive ones, but the productive ones pay more so that the nonproductive ones can get their monthly check. After a a while, the numbers of those nonproductive members starts to overtake the productive members and a welfare reform is needed. Soon the productive members are giving more out of their paycheck as the population gap starts to spread apart. Sooner or later the productive members end up paying so much in taxes that they make just as much as the government gives to the unproductive people. Seeing this, the productive members say to hell with working because the government is going to pay them just as much for sitting on their asses. This now socialist state collapses because nobody is doing anything. IS this the United states' future? Especially with the new influx of ileagal immigrants who require wellfare?

Before you all get mad, I realize that there are exceptions to this as some children of these rabbit familes go on to become productive members of society, and that there are also children of the productive members that become non productive. Anyway, my 2 cents.

It is easy to hypothesize a problem. What suggestions do you have for a solution?

Based on the number of false assumptions and the level of faulty reasoning throughout your post, I'd conclude you were one of those who didn't learn the value of a good education.

But hey, I'm only a teacher who would fail your paper for that kind of jibberish.

Seems like a skewed, highly hypothetical arguement. Maybe you should have another glass of wine, or hit on the joint, and then you could refine the arguement!

I thought there was some validity to the argument.

Socialism and laziness go hand in hand.

How do we increase productivity?

Now, if THAT is not the definition of a troll, I don't know the definition.

I kept an open mind and he's right!!!
OhmyGawd... the AM is Right!!! You are so right and I feel so guilty!!!! Heterosexuals with children like myself are parasites on the working childless homosexuals who do not produce offspring. Our children use public schools, libraries and parks. We take maternity and paternity leaves. I take sick time when my kids are sick. I took tax deducations and credits for having children, declared them as independents. I've left work early to meet with teachers.

Tonight, all of us heterosexuals with children should go down to the nearest Gay bar... buy a couple rounds for the hardworking childless clientelle and apologize for our social parasitism.

pedxing do you just sit on your ass all day drinking beer, or do you have a job? If you just sit aroundon your ass living on welfare, then you are a parsite, but I'm willing to bet that you havea job and you contribute to society. Remember that I didn't put a salary limit on this. Even the poorest man who is productive is still productive.

I'm kind of still new to the TT world but I wanted to pitch in my two cents. I work with people who are impoverished as my career type thing. Poverty, violence, drug addiction, poor educational systems, sure are difficult to label "lazy". Everyday I think to myself that there is really not much separating me from the people I work with. A little education, and a lot of luck. And these people are excellent people. With a whole lot of good in them and about them.

As someone on the "I Would Never Riot" WKRP(?) thread said, "...those people are just like the rest of us..."

My old man grew up in Washington, DC, born 1919.
As intolerant as he has seemed at times, he once said, "I believe that blacks have a greater capacity for compassion than whites."
Go figure

Gee, no stereotyping here.

Lots of good logic and argumentation skills too.

RE: What social programs are really up to
I worked for three years for a non-profit that was funded by the state to help people at the low income spectrum get off or stay off welfare. There are a lot of incredibly unlucky people and then there are a lot of very lazy people. Some people are mentally, emotionally or physically incapacitated. The more children a family has, the more likely that an unlucky event or series of events will throw them out on the street. Yet a lot of my friends have had dreams of large families. It is a normal thing to them, a historical trend in their family. Divorce or death can turn that dream into a monumental struggle, but people often don't plan for that. The issue is a human one not a racial or ethnic one, at least in the U.S. Having smaller families is a trend among non-farm workers and welfare is not enough to live on.
